Villa Littmann, Architectural heritage villa in Thalkirchen, Germany.
Villa Littmann is a residential building in Thalkirchen featuring English country house architecture with half-timbered sections and distinctive onion-shaped roof elements. The house includes generous windows, a veranda, and sits within grounds that contain a small stream.
The building was constructed in 1901 by architect Max Littmann as a summer residence for Ida Littmann, before passing to Jakob Heilmann in 1909 who altered its function and purpose.
The villa stands as an example of early 20th-century residential design in Bavaria, incorporating architectural elements that reflect the period's building traditions.
The property sits back from Heilmannstraße 29 in the Thalkirchen district, making it somewhat set apart from street level and requiring a bit of looking around to find the entrance. The surrounding gardens are accessible and worth exploring when visiting.
The house served as a filming location for the first season of the television series Familie Sonnenfeld between 2005 and 2007, introducing it to audiences as a notable backdrop for a popular show.
